Body Type?

Lucy

Hi, Ladies!
I've been a regular visitor of this site for about a year, but only posted for the first time a couple of weeks ago in Nicole's discussion about voting on the greyhound racetrack. As stated at the time, I need your expert opinions on my body type. I'm pretty sure I'm either a pear or an hourglass.

Also, as promised for Ana, here is picture of my sweet pup, White Socks.

I suspect pear, with hourglass leanings

Lucy

Thanks for your input, Anne. That is what I suspected as well. Of course I would prefer to be just an hourglass, but I'll take what I can get ( :

Hi Lucy. I'm not very good at identifying body shapes, just wanted to say White Socks is adorable!

Hi Lucy, Thanks for taking the plunge by posting photos. We all know how hard it can be to do that.

You have a very nice figure. I think you look hourglass to me because your shoulder to hip ratio is pretty close. You have a defined waist.

Welcome to the site and I hope you participate more now that you've posted your first photos. (It can be addictive). You pup is adorable. I'm starting to jones for a new dog, and have considered waiting for the greyhounds in MA to need home--but I think we will be looking for a small this time around. My last dog was 85-90 pounds. I'm thinking I'd like something that can fit in my pocket!

Hi Lucy, I agree with Nicole that you look like an hourglass in the photo for the reasons Nicole said. White Socks is a sweetie. We look forward to your posts here.

Hi Lucy, great that you got the courage to post the photo. I would also say that you are a hourglass, with very slight pear tendencies. And White Socks is adorable!

Lucy

Thanks for the compliments, ladies (for me and White Socks).

Nicole, greyhounds are wonderful and I can't say enough good things about them, but I understand wanting a smaller dog as well. If I had the space, I'd have a whole menagerie in my backyard, which would include a dachshund and an italian greyhound! No matter what breed you choose, I hope you consider adopting from a rescue organization. And, most importantly, I hope you post pictures of your new addition!
